Twitch's Updated Splash Arts...

I really like Twitch. Like, a lot. My friend told me that Twitch was getting new splashes and I was ecstatic! I thought that he meant new splashes like the ones Riot was hinting at for Trundle but it was just ports of the Chinese ones. I thought, "It might not be so bad" but then I looked at them.

My grievances with this change as that the NA splashes kind of stink (no pun intended). The Chinese splashes are definitely an improvement but they still don't come close to representing what he actually looks like in game. Neither one of them accomplish this and it's like putting a band-aid on a dismembered hand, taking the band-aid off, then putting another band-aid on. The problem is still present. I really hope that he does get an actual splash art update at some point like Trundle will be getting sometime in the future. Until then, I guess this isn't too bad until then, if it happens.

But on the contrary,

I don't know about you guys, but the Chinese version of Gangster Twitch looks like an evil Chuck E. Cheese animatronic and less like Twitch. It looks like it's a guy that's dressed up in a rat suit with a tommy gun, not Twitch :(

This is the only splash art change I don't approve of for Twitch right now, I really don't think this one represents his character or what he looks like in general. I'd rather have the current one than this one, and I might be the only one but that's just my opinion.

I prefer the old ones, until we get new splash arts i'd rather stick with them, the Chinese ones are creepy and not in a cool way.

They said that this is a temporary solution to remove the region-specific-pipelines. so yes,all of these will be replaced(or at least updated) eventually.

And honestly,while the chinese gangster twitch looks horrible,he does look a bit more like his ingame counterpart,given that he is more skinny and has his colors match the ingame model(still hope that he gets entirely new splashes soon)
